<p> ''''' shē´ma ''''' ( שׁמע , <i> ''''' shemā‛ ''''' </i> ; Σαμαά , <i> ''''' Samaá ''''' </i> ): A city of [[Judah]] in the [[Negeb]] ( Joshua 15:26 ). If, as some think, identical with [[Sheba]] (which see) of Joshua 19:2 , then the latter must have been inserted here from Joshua 15:26 . It is noticeable that the root letters ( שׁמע , <i> '''''sh''''' </i> - <i> '''''m''''' </i> - <i> '''''‛''''' </i> ) were those from which [[Simeon]] is derived. [[Shema]] is probably identical with [[Jeshua]] ( Nehemiah 11:26 ). The place was clearly far South, and it may be <i> '''''Kh''''' </i> . <i> '''''Sa‛wah''''' </i> , a ruin upon a prominent hilltop between <i> '''''Kh''''' </i> . <i> '''''‛Attı̄r''''' </i> and <i> '''''Khirbet''''' </i> <i> '''''el''''' </i> - <i> '''''Milḥ''''' </i> . There is a wall around the ruins, of large blocks of conglomerate flint ( <i> PEF </i> , III, 409, Sh Xxv ). </p>

<p> (Heb. in three forms, Shema', שְׁמָע , Joshua 15:26; Shema', שֵׁמִע;, elsewhere, except "in pause, " She'ma, שָׁמִע, 1 Chronicles 2:43 all meaning rumor; Sept. Σαμά, v.r. Σαμαά, Σαλμάα, Σαμαϊ v ας, etc.), the name of four men and of one place. </p> <p> 1. [[Last]] named of the four sons of Hebron, and father of Raham, descendants of Caleb, great-grandson of [[Judah]] (1 Chronicles 2:43-44). B.C. ante 1658. </p> <p> 2. A Benjamite, son of Elpaal, and one of the heads of the fathers of the inhabitants of Aijalon, who drove out the inhabitants of [[Gath]] (1 Chronicles 8:13). B.C. post 1618. He is probably the same as [[Shimhi]] (1 Chronicles 8:21). </p> <p> 3. [[Son]] of Joel and father of Azaz, among the [[Reubenite]] chiefs (1 Chronicles 5:8). B.C. ante 1090. Perhaps the same with [[Shemaiah]] (q.v.) of 1 Chronicles 5:4. (See Joel 2.) </p> <p> 4. One of those (apparently laymen) who stood at Ezra's right hand while lie read the law to the people (Nehemiah 8:4). B.C. 458. </p> <p> 5. A town in the south of Judah, named between [[Amam]] and [[Moladah]] (Joshua 15:26). The place seems to have no connection with No. 1 above (see Keil, ad loc. Chronicles). In the parallel list of towns set off from Judah to [[Simeon]] (Joshua 19:2), the name appears as [[Sheba]] (q.v.), which is perhaps the more correct, as [[Shema]] never, elsewhere appears as the appellation of a town. Knobel (in the Kurzgef. exeg. Handb. ad loc.) suggests that it may be the present ruins Sameh, between Milh and Beer- sheba (Van de Velde, Syria, 2, 148). </p>
